Significance of oil lamps

Lighting an oil lamp at dawn and/or dusk is believed to be a symbol of enlightenment and brings about success and prosperity. In every Hindu home a lamp or diya is lit daily before a Hindu deity or any symbol associated with Hinduism or even ta the altar. Many Hindus also perform an arati with the traditional oil lamp. The lamp is lit in the morning or evening or both morning and evening. In some houses the lamp is maintained continuously and is known Akhand Deep or Akhanda Diya.

The wick in the traditional oil lamp symbolizes ego and the oil or ghee used symbolizes our negative tendencies. When we are lit by self-knowledge, the negative tendencies (oil) melt away and finally the ego (wick) perishes. When the ego perishes, we realize that we are all part of Brahman and that life is continuity.

The lighting of 'diya' or lamp at home is considered highly auspiciousness as it brings prosperity and good health. The daily evening lamp lit at home also gives us an opportunity to ponder over one's omissions and commissions in a day.

Ruby gems Hi, I want to thanks you as I have received the items today. I was very pleased to do business with you and the only thing I regret that I came to know about you lately. I have bought many things from India that is religious items that you also have it but I must say your service is really very very good compare to other from where i have bought items. In the future any items I will buy I'll buy it from you. Keep it like this as you know today the internet has become very competitive and Good service is the key to success. Once more thanks a lot and a word from the bottom of my heart

I purchased many Rudraksha from Rudra Center and have had nothing but good service and top quality. The prices are competitive and if a person wants a cheaper price then need to buy wholesale in quantity. Every business has lots of costs and overheads that have to be included in the price. The smaller the business the smaller the overheads. Rudra Center is a bigger than most business (Rudraksha) and have much higher overheads. And you get bigger in business and long lasting through honesty. I think they deserve respect, and recognition for their expertise and honesty. Richard Shaw-Brown
